Abstract:
It has formerly been reported that the kerogen of oil shale could be converted to petroleum at elevated pressures. Recent experimental work by the authors on typical oil shales from Elko, Nevado and Grand Valley, Colorado to determine quantitatively the amount of oil produced when these shales were subjected to rock flowage at ordinary temperatures disclosed the fact that no free oil was formed under such conditions. In view of the results obtained there is reason for doubting the common conception that the kerogen of oil shales represents a stage in the transformation of organic material to petroleum.
